Survey Invitation: Post-Disaster Reconstruction Worker Safety Study

Dear Colleague,

I am inviting U.S. professionals with post-disaster reconstruction (PDR) experience to complete an anonymous online survey about factors that influence worker safety during recovery and rebuilding efforts.

To be eligible, you must be an adult 18+ with U.S.-based professional PDR experience (e.g., emergency management, public works, construction, safety, NGOs, engineering/planning).

The one-time online survey takes approximately 30 minutes. Participation is voluntary and involves minimal risk. You may skip any question or stop at any time. At the end of the survey, you may optionally volunteer for a brief follow-up interview (30 – 45 minutes), scheduled separately.

For questions, please contact Solomon Ajasa at ssajasa@crimson.ua.edu. For any concerns regarding your rights as a participant, contact The University of Alabama IRB office at rscompliance@ua.edu.

Thank you for considering this invitation and for your service to communities during recovery. I would also be happy to provide any additional clarification regarding the survey. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Best Regards,
